Getting Started
- Choose the Right Apple: For baking, select firm varieties like Honeycrisp, Granny Smith, or Fuji. They hold their shape and texture well, preventing mushiness during longer bake times.
- Dairy-Free Fat Substitutions: When a recipe calls for butter, use a high-quality dairy-free butter alternative or coconut oil. Coconut oil works well for crumbles and pastry, providing richness without dairy.
- Prevent Browning: To keep sliced apples from browning before baking, toss them lightly with lemon juice. This acidifies the surface, inhibiting oxidation.
- Achieve Tenderness: For whole baked apples, ensure they are cored completely to allow heat to penetrate evenly. Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 30-45 minutes, or until easily pierced with a fork.
